Mark 4
1 Jesus again began to teach by the sea; and, as an immense crowd was gathering round him, he got into a boat, and sat in it on the sea, while all the people were on the shore at the water’s edge.
Lvkodv Jisu Galili Svparsvlv adarlo tamsar rapto. Nw a ho dokarnv nyitwng v achialvbv twngtvto vkvlvgabv nw svpw arwnglo chaala dooto. Svpw v arwng kiambv vnglinto, okv nyitwng v dakto isi sidar biyagilo.
2 Then he taught them many truths in parables; and in the course of his teaching he said to them:
Nw bunua awgo tamsar dvla minchisinam vkv minvla minjito:
3 ‘Listen! The sower went out to sow;
“Tvvto! Kvvlo nyi ako dooto nw radv chibv vnglinto.
4 and presently, as he was sowing, some of the seed fell along the path; and the birds came, and ate it up.
Vdwlo nw amw vdwa rongolo chiak rapto kudw, kvgonv lamtvlo olinpvto, okv pvta vdwv aala okv hum dvtoku.
5 Some fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil, and, because the soil wasn’t deep, sprang up at once;
Kvgonv lvngtak lo holula hopvto, hoka kvdw achakgo dooto. Amw v ainbv boklin toku ogulvgavbolo kvdw v rungrwng mato.
6 but, when the sun rose, it was scorched, and, because their roots were not deep enough, withered away.
Agar miami v rungrwngbv harlwkku kaama laila vbvrinamv, vdwlo doonyi v chaalin tokudw agar a kaayok toku; okv ogulvgavbolo miami v rungrwngbv kvdwlo aamato, agar v baapubv sintoku.
7 Some of the seed fell among brambles; but the brambles shot up and completely choked it, and it yielded no return.
Kvgonv tvv apumlo holwkto, v singtoku okv agar a yuptoku, okv bunu oguka dape peelin mato.
8 Some fell into good soil, and, shooting up and growing, yielded a return, amounting to thirty, sixty, and even a hundred fold.’
Kvgonv hooluto kvdw alvyaung kolo, okv agar v baapubv garlinto, singto, okv dape peelin toku: kvgonv dasum chaam go kvgonv chamkv, okv kvgonv lwngbv.”
9 And Jesus said, ‘Let anyone who has ears to hear with hear.’
Okv Jisu minya toku, “Vbvrinamv, nonuno nyarung doodu nvlo, tvvtoka!”
10 Afterwards, when he was alone, his followers and the Twelve asked him about his parables;
Vdwlo Jisu akin tokudw ninyigv minam a tvvnv nyi kvgonv bunu lvbwlaksu vring gola anyi gv lvkobv aala ninyia minchisinama minbwk jilabvkv vtoku.
11 and he said, ‘To you the hidden truth of the kingdom of God has been imparted; but to those who are outside it all teaching takes the form of parables so that –
Jisu mirwksito, “Pwknvyarnv gv rungrwng rungnv Karv gv lvkwng nga nonua jiroku. Vbvritola kvvbinyi vdwv, ogumvnwng nga minchisinam lokv tvvdunv,
12 “Though they have eyes, they may see without perceiving; and though they have ears, they may hear without understanding; otherwise some day they might turn and be forgiven.”’
vkvlvgavbolo, ‘Bunu kaadv-kaadv la kaare, vbvrijvka kaapa mare; okv tvvdv-tvvdv la tvvre, vbvrijvka tvvchin mare. Vkvlvgavbolo bunu chinv guilo bunu Pwknvyarnvnyi dakrwk dukunvpv, okv nw bunua mvngnga jidu kunvpv.’”
13 ‘You do not know the meaning of this parable?’ he went on, ‘Then how will you understand all the other parables?
Vbvrinamv Jisu bunuam tvvkato, “Nonu minchisinam sum chimadunvri? Vbvrikubolo nonu oguaingbv kvvbi minchisinam go chindubv?
14 The sower sows the message.
Amw paknv Pwknvyarnv gv doin a pakje jito.
15 The people meant by the seed that falls along the path are these – where the message is sown, but, as soon as they have heard it, Satan immediately comes and carries away the message that has been sown in them.
Kvgonv nyi v ho lamtvlo amw hosoknam jvbv; bunuv baapubv doin a tvvdasopitda, Uyu ngv aareku okv hung naala vnggvreku.
16 So, too, those meant by the seed sown on the rocky places are the people who, when they have heard the message, at once accept it joyfully;
Kvgonv nyi v amw v lvngtak aolo hopvnam jvbv. Bunuv baapubv doin tvvdasopitda bunu himpula hum tvvrwksito.
17 but, as they have no root, they stand only for a short time; and so, when trouble or persecution arises because of the message, they fall away at once.
Vbvritola bunulo rungrwngbv aalwk manam lvgalo, okv bunu vdwloka hvngdwng mare vkvlvgabv vdwlo adwkaku v vmalo mvdwkmvku v aarikudw doin lvga lokv, bunu vjakgobv kayudariku.
18 Those meant by the seed sown among the brambles are different; they are the people who hear the message,
Kvgunv nyi v tvv hvdwnglo amw holwk nam jvbv rido. So vdw sinv yvv doin ham tvvdunv,
19 but the cares of life, and the glamour of wealth, and cravings for many other things come in and completely choke the message, so that it gives no return. (aiōn g165)
vbvritola mvngrudu so singse lvgabv, nyitv lvgabv pakyado, okv nvgwng a mvngbiula nyitwng arwnglo okv doin a ngemu duku, okv bunu asi svlin kumanv. (aiōn g165)
20 But the people meant by the seed sown on the good ground are those who hear the message, and welcome it, and yield a return, thirty, sixty, and even a hundred fold.’
Vbvritola kvgonv nyi v alvnv kvdw lo amw paknam jvbv rito. Bunu doin a tvvgapto, hung tvvrwksito, okv asi svlinto: kvgonv chaam bv, kvgonv chamkvbv, okv kvgonv lwngbv.”
21 Jesus said to them, ‘Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under the couch, instead of being put on the lamp-stand?
Jisu minbwngto, “Nyi akonv mvdurrupum ako naalwkla okv hum bati kyampwk takmamla vmalo gadw gv kyampwk lo vvpv dvnvri? Hum tunggingnvnv gv aolo nw vvpv madunvri?
22 There is nothing hidden that will not come to light and nothing is concealed that will not be brought into the open.
Ogugo vvsi pvdw hum agumlo bvnglinla mvko riku, okv ogugo takmam pvkudw v takmam kumare.
23 Let all who have ears to hear with hear.
Vbvrinamv, tvvto nonuno nyarung doodu nvlo!”
24 ‘Take care what you listen to,’ said Jesus. ‘The standard you use will be used for you, and more will be added for you.
Nw bunua lvkodv mindvto, “Alvbv tvvgapto ogugo no tvvpvdw! Ogu kiinvnv lokv no nyi ham jwngkadaka dvdw vbv kiinvnv lokv Pwknvyarnv ka nam jwngkadaka—vbvritola humka kaiyanvgo rire.
25 For, to those who have, more will be given; while, from those who have nothing, even what they have will be taken away.’
Nyi v yvvdw ogugo doodudw hum kaiyago jire okv nyi v yvv ogugoka domapvdw vkvgvlo achukgo doonam haka naarit reku.”
26 Jesus also said, ‘This is what the kingdom of God is like – like a man who has scattered seed on the ground,
Jisu minbwngto, “Pwknvyarnv gv karv ngv svbv rido. Nyi akonv ninyigv rongolo amw paklwkkto.
27 and then sleeps by night and rises by day, while the seed is shooting up and growing – he knows not how.
Nw ayulo yuptoku, alu dukubv v gudung toku, okv vbvririlo amw mvnwngngv boksula okv garrap toku. Vjvka um nw oguaingbv ridu nvdw um chinkuma.
28 The ground bears the crop of itself – first the blade, then the ear, and then the full grain in the ear;
Kvdw v atubongv singnv a singmusido okv asi a svlin mosudo. Atukchochukbv radvdada ngv, okv danv ngv, okv ataranyabv dape mvnwng a kaapado.
29 but, as soon as the crop is ready, immediately he puts in the sickle because harvest has come.’
Vdwlo radv ngv kamkubolo, nyi v parap toku hum ninyigv rioktung lokv, ogulvgavbolo rongo mvdw dw v aatoku.
30 Jesus also said, ‘To what can we liken the kingdom of God?
“Pwknvyarnv gv Karv ngv svbv rido vla ngonu oguaingbv minsedw?” Jisu tvuto. “Ngonu hum ogugonyi minchisinvla minbwk jidubv?
31 By what can we illustrate it? Perhaps by the growth of a mustard seed. This seed, when sown in the ground, though it is smaller than all other seeds,
So si svbv ridu. Nyi akonv yingmw go naato, nyiamooku gv amw charching yachoknv, okv um kvdwlo lvvlwk toku.
32 yet, when sown, shoots up, and becomes larger than any other herb, and puts out great branches, so that even the wild birds can roost in its shelter.’
Ayungjvma nga v singcha toku okv singnv mvnwngnga kaiyachok nvgobv ritoku. Hv hakbv ngv vbv kairungbv harlin toku ho pvta ngv aala bunugv asup vdwa ho gv doonyum lo suplwk toku.”
33 With many such parables Jesus used to speak to the people of his message, as far as they were able to receive it;
Jisu ninyigv doina nyi vdwlo japjito, mintaknvto awgo kvvbi minchisinam sibe minvla; nw mintamto bunua vkamgo bunu tvvchin nyodudw.
34 and to them he never used to speak except in parables; but in private to his own disciples he explained everything.
Nw ogugoka mimato bunua minchisinam mintak mabv, vbvritola vdwlo nw akinpvdw lvbwlaksu vdwa lvkobv, nw ogumvnwng nga bunua minbwk jitoku.
35 In the evening of the same day, Jesus said to them, ‘Let us go across.’
Ho alu akin gv arium hoka, Jisu ninyigv lvbwlaksu vdwa minto, “Klai svparsvlv takdv gonv durap linlaju.”
36 So, leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them, just as he was, in the boat; and there were other boats with him.
Vkvlvgabv bunu nyitwng nga vngyu toku; lvbwlaksu vdwv Jisu gv doolwkku svpw lo aalwk mingvto, okv bunu ninyia bunugv lvkobv vnggv toku. Kvvbi svpw vdwvka hoka dooto.
37 A violent squall came on, and the waves kept dashing into the boat, so that the boat was actually filling.
Dvminmabv kairungbv doori v rirapto, okv sikiok v svpw arwnglo kioklwkto, vkvlvgabv isi v hoka yarbing tvvtoku.
38 Jesus was in the stern asleep on the cushion; and the disciples roused him and cried, ‘Teacher! Is it nothing to you that we are lost?’
Jisunyi svpw arwng gv koching kiambv dooto, nw domtom golo dumpo ngv dumpv tola yupminto. Lvbwlaksu vdwv ninyia muuto okv minto, “Tamsarnv, no ngonua mvngpa kumare ngonu sida jiku nvlaka?”
39 Jesus rose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, ‘Hush! Be still!’ Then the wind dropped, and a great calm followed.
Jisu dakrapto okv dooria mintoku, “Choibv dooto!” Okv nw minto sikiok aka, “Doochingbv dooto!” Doori v ringin toku, hoka kairungbv jematai toku.
40 ‘Why are you so timid?’ he exclaimed. ‘Have you no faith yet?’
Vbvrikunamv Jisu ninyigv lvbwlaksu vdwa minto, “Ogubv nonu busu nyadunv? Vjaklodvbv nonu nga mvngjwng malare?”
41 But they were struck with great awe, and said to one another, ‘Who can this be that even the wind and the sea obey him?’
Vbvritola bunu achialvbv busuto okv akonv akonyi mimisito, “Yvvla so nyi si? Doori vla sikiok hvka ninyia tvvdu!”
